Beautiful Charts.
Tableau makes stunning visualizations, but it doesn't know a Gantt chart from a grocery list. POD was built for construction.

What Frustrates Tableau Users
Especially construction and project management teams
Crazy expensive
$35/month just to VIEW dashboards. $115/month to create them. For a 10-person team, you're looking at $8,400-$13,800 annually before infrastructure and training.
Slow with large data
Users report "lag and slowdowns when dashboards get too complex." Too many filters or data sources? Get ready to wait.
Dashboard sprawl nightmare
Even minor changes require rebuilding entire sheets. Renaming a column? Manual updates everywhere. It's maintenance hell.
Not a project management tool
No task dependencies, no critical path, no milestone tracking. Want a Gantt chart? Build it manually with zero drag-and-drop.
